    Drive Tube Self Oiler?

    I have one on my big cat, 1/4" drive.

    How about one for the little cats? For the 4mm cable drive tubes?
    I've seen a few articles on building one, but if there's something already available, that would be cool.

          You can also drill a 1/8" hole in the stuffing tube about 1-2" from the motor end and then solder on a 1/2" long piece of 5/32 brass tubing.

              Didn't even think of soldering! That's a great solution. I could even use a reducer and a cap and make a nice one.

              Thanks!!

                  Use a tiny bottle, attach it with some silicon tubing and fill it with vegetable oil for oiling during the run.

                      Vegetable oil. Better for the environment or is there another advantage?

                      BTW- cheap vegetable oil is a good way to kill mosquito larvae in smaller ponds. It covers their breathing tubes and they suffocate. Works for water barrels & such too.

                                      Yup, but not a bot that I know of. if they are, they are getting smarter.

                                                  That's what threw me, I didn't even know tanasit was a member's name, and that it was just a random word from the newly registered poster.
